Major late September schedule changes

[Pyramid80]

Also noticed they're moving into episodes of $25K Pyramid from November 1987 that they've shown before (even though they're marked as being new-to-GSN).

Greg, I noticed two episodes skipped (not that I'm complaining too much about it.) Did GSN show the Monday episode of the Alison La Placa & Tom Villard week in the past?

No idea. The lone episode I have from that week in my collection is the Tuesday show, so that doesn't help. I've never seen any more than two episodes in anyone else's collections though, so it's quite possible that they skipped it in the early 2000s as well.

I taped those Pyramid episodes when they aired on GSN the last time, and I only have two in my collection.  I would have to go back and watch them to see if I can figure out which day they are.  So maybe the two skipped episodes are the ones that previously aired in the early 2000's.

Also good to see that the Sale and Press leases are continuing without skips.

There was a very obscure cable channel whose name escapes me...ATN or something. Crosswits aired there c. 1997-98.

AIN (American Independent Network), and you have the dates right.

It was only a three day week (Thanksgiving) so now I'm really leaning toward them having skipped it before. The other one they're skipping is the Friday show of the previous week.

Yes! Thank you!

Some interesting things on the Card Sharks ep that was shown on Oct. 3. Lacey was telling everyone how to apply for a special children's week of shows. When Bob Eubanks cued her, she said "Thanks Bill." Apparently she thought it was the nighttime version with Rafferty. She knew she goofed right after she said it. Bob responded by saying "That's okay Vanna."

Also, they had an "educated guess" question" - How old is Dick Clark? IIRC, the answer was 58.

Crosswits aired on that channel through 2001.  When I first moved to Salt Lake City, I ended up catching the last 12 episodes they aired before it was taken off.

Two episodes of the David Sparks version of Crosswits are scheduled to air on 10/26/14.

So they are going alphabetical.  I'll take a wild stab and say "D" will be Doubletalk.

(Shame it's not the Jack Clark version.)

The "evidence" that they are going alphabetical is STILL circumstantial, at best.

Personally, I hope you are right!

Pyramid80, did you check the copies of the La Placa & Villard episodes that you recorded to see if you really only got Tuesday and Wednesday?

I haven't yet, but will try and do that tomorrow.  Got to find the tape and hook up a VCR.

Thank you for your help, pyramid80.

I have to admit, I am amused by this development.

Another common bond between the four shows is early game show appearances of comedy stars--Billy Crystal, Brad Garrett, Rosie O'Donnell, and Arsenio Hall.

If this is indeed alphabetical, why are we getting two C shows instead of a C and a D?  I'm also puzzled as to the three week gap between tomorrow night's shows and Crosswits.

My guess is to account for missing Q and X?
